9th Symposium Driving Simulation
8+9 November 2023 | Braunschweig, GER
OBJECTIVE
The Symposium Driving Simulation - SDS brings together industrial and academic experts from the fields of virtual driving simulation, driving dynamics, ADAS sensor technology and autonomous driving. Our format offers a familiar environment for networking and the presentation of scientific approaches, application-oriented results and state-of the art technologies. The focus of the 9th edition SDS is on technical challenges, latest research approaches and state of the art simulation processes. SDS offers the industrial and academic community a better technological access and possibilities for deeper exchange and future collaborations. We offer start-ups and public funded projects a platform for professional exchange, dissemination, and the development of their business relationships.
BACKGROUND
Turning the vision of autonomous driving into reality requires a fundamental digital transformation in the development process. The rapidly increasing product complexity and the interaction of the vehicle with a connected environment lead to a multidimensional test matrix of hitherto unknown dimensions. It is obvious that in order to cope with these demanding tasks, a partial shift from real testing to the hybrid / virtual world is necessary in order to develop safely, reproducibly and efficiently. Simulation methods in combination with driving simulators are a key technology. Automotive OEMs and suppliers need to make the numerous possible solutions offered by driving simulators their own, while technology providers have to develop them further for the future. All too often this potential is not fully exploited due to the increasing complexity of these systems and a heterogeneous hardware and software environment. Here, too, continuous research and further development of virtual test methods is necessary to provide engineers with reliable and credible simulation processes.
TARGET AUDIENCE
The event is aimed at decision-makers and experts from science and industry in the field of virtual driving simulation, driving dynamics, ADAS, autonomous driving and connected mobility systems.

DLR - Institute of Transportation Systems
Around 250 scientific employees - engineers, psychologists and computer scientists - work at the Institute of Transportation Systems Engineering at the Braunschweig and Berlin sites. They carry out research and development for automotive and rail systems and for traffic management. And in doing so, they contribute to increasing the safety and efficiency of traffic on roads and railways. The close cooperation between DLR's institutes and facilities enables synergies to be exploited with aerospace and energy technology.
The Institute of Transportation Systems was founded in 2001 under the direction of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Karsten Lemmer at the Braunschweig Research Airport. It has grown steadily since then and is consistently expanding its research activities. Our scientists work closely with partners and customers from industry, science and politics on a national and international level. After three years of institute management by Prof. Katharina Seifert, Prof. Michael Ortgiese has been acting director since October 1, 2021.
